Bounding Recursive Procedural Models Using Convex Optimization
We present an algorithm to construct a tight bounding polyhedron for a recursive procedural model. We first use an iterated function system (IFS) to represent the extent of the p...

Automated Termination Analysis for Programs with Second-Order Recursion
Many algorithms on data structures such as terms (finitely branching trees) are naturally implemented by second-order recursion: A first-order procedure f passes itself as an arg...

Distributed algorithms for covering, packing and maximum weighted matching
Abstract This paper gives poly-logarithmic-round, distributed δ-approximation algorithms for covering problems with submodular cost and monotone covering constraints (Submodular-c...
